KS Lev 27.2mm Seatpost

KS LEV 27.2mm Seatpost

In the world of modern all-mountain riding, an adjustable seat post is an invaluable upgrade that can significantly affect your ride quality. The Kind Shock LEV features 100mm of travel to keep you in the right position for any terrain.

Bike was pretty much the way I wanted it already. I'd seen these and hear how everyone who gets them loves them. Well, count me in too. I've put a bunch of miles on mine and the enthusiasm has not faded one bit. If you are like me and think you might like one. Do yourself a favor and go for it.

The remote lever that works with the lock-on grips makes for a clean cockpit. Also the cable attaches to the middle of the post so it doesn't go up and down with the seat. I'm big rider at 200 lbs and no reliability issue so far.

I;d read just how good dropper posts were and ive been really happy with this one. It works great, looks great. Love how you can adjust the position to any point so it can be high for road and then a little lower for trails and then right down out of the way for steep sections and jumps.

it was a little fiddly to install, and while the handlebar shifter is great with the way it acts as a lock on for ODI grips, I do find it gets in the way of my front gear shifter a bit. This wouldn't be an issue with any 1xX bikes though.

I have this seat post for four rides and now it sticks and don't fully return up until I pull it with my hand. I barely torque the seat clamp to test it but still sticks. Side to side play is also getting worst. I am totally done with it and this thing is going back.

Have been riding with this post for a bit now, and I'm amazed at how it changed my riding for the better. First time I tried it out (across my lawn) I could already tell it was going to be good. I really like the remote's size and shape- good at staying out of the way and fitting in smaller spaces. The post actuates a little slower than others I have seen, but this is a good thing in my opinion, as I'm not a fan of having certain areas tenderized. I was pleasantly surprised that the post was all black- the newest version- Jenson ought to put an updated picture on their site. Otherwise, I can't comment on reliability or longevity of the post, as I've only been using it for a few weeks. I will say that it's a good idea to have your LBS install the post- cost me about $20 but I'll bet it saved me a load of frustration.All in all a great product as far as I can tell. It's a little spendy, but it does what it is supposed to do, and well.

Installed this on my lynskey 29er hardtail and it has transformed the ride. Makes it super easy to shift your weight around and I feel more confident on the gnar. Fixed cable entry is awesome. Only downside is the price and limited 100mm drop. Lever is a little bit awkward on rough stuff too.

Works reasonably well. Doesn't always come up to full height. Have to compress and then release to get it to full height on the trail. But you don't need to stop to do that action. Installation was doable but the instructions weren'the always helpful. Obviously they have made some changes to the design and did not update the instructions.

Unfortunately the first time I received the post it was dead on arrival according to my local bike mechanic it might have been due to it sitting around for awhile. However the great folks at Jenson sent a replacement and it worked perfectly. The dropper is smooth to engage and hasn't failed on any occasion. The trigger is small and light with the engagement made easy.

More inclined to ride trails as I now don't need to keep stopping to lower/raise seat post. I ride a single speed mountain bike so riding at seat height that is a compromise between climbing and descending to alleviate constant stopping to adjust seat height places undue stress on knees while climbing (seat too low, greater knee flexion at 12 o'clock pedal position).

Have been using on on a specialized SJ Eva to replace the std as I wanted more height flexibility, works great, now have a SJ World Cup hard tail that I occasionally need to drop post on, getting off is a pain so bought another . Slight problem with new build sticking ha ring been in packaging and sitting on shelf, couple of cycles and it moves and returns smoothly, would like to have ability to apply greater pressure for quicker return, other than that hope to get same great function

I can't believe I waited this long to ride with a DP! My bike is a totally different animal now. It turns and descend so fast; and the weight penalty is minimal.I ride "race" hardtails and this is simply the ultimate invention for a mtb. PERIOD

I have this and also the Thomson external dropper. I like the activation on this one better since the cable does not move and it is very easy to get installed and adjusted correctly. Time will tell if it as reliable as my Thomson has been.

I bought this for my 2009 NS Surge CroMo rigid (hardtail) freeride bike as I use it more like a Enduro/trail bike this days. It has been 2 years now and still working flawless. The only bad thing is that, at this size (27.2), you can only have it in 100mm drop. But no big deal. Hope it helps.

Very good quality dropper post. The installation is painless, instructions are very clear or just watch their YouTube instruction video it's even better.Post is a little slow to return, and the pressure is not adjustable. Definitely not a deal breaker unless a fast return is really important for you.

Received the post and it looked high quality enough with nothing looking cheap. For the first 3 rides the post would not return after being in the lowered position for more than 20-30 seconds. Bummer. Send it in and I get it back with a note about how it was over torqued and had water in it. Hmmm. Guess my torque wrench isn't any good and as for water, well I live in WA. I put the returned dropper back and it won't return all the way from the first time I try it. The only way to return it is to pull it up. No way they could have checked this before they sent it back to me. Requesting a full refund and we'll see what they do. Not happy at all with the slow and incomplete return.

I hate to leave a bad review . But 2nd time using ks lev it broke while out on the trail . I send it back in to warranty . Spent a lot of money on this dropper seat post and I have not got my money worth . I hope warranty is able to fix the issue and send it back as soon as possible .

Used on a Kona Sutra for cross country touring for two years. Have over 14,000 km on it. Worked well at first in warm weather. Not good in the cold as you have to help it get up by pulling the seat by hand. After a year it had sideways play. After two years it is spongy and moves up and down a bit like stitting on a spring. No longer moves up on its own but you have to pull it up even in warm weather. Spent a lot of money on it and worn out in two years.

Mine measures 161.5mm from the bottom of the collar at the seat post clamp to the center of the seat rail, and 140mm from the bottom of the collar to the base of the seat clamp (head of the post). Distance from bottom of collar to max travel of post (100mm) is 134mm. Hope that helps.

It should be about an extra inch total above the 4 inches the 100m provide.Give or take. But if your question is in regards to "Is this enough"?Its more than enough.I usually dont press my seat all the way before steep drops and stuff.
